Our personnel will attempt pickup at the scheduled time. You (or your authorized representative) must be available at the pickup location. For delivery, the recipient must be available and complete the OTP/2FA verification process.

5.2 Delivery Attempts & Rescheduling

If the recipient is unavailable or verification fails after reasonable attempts, we may reschedule the delivery or return the shipment to the sender. Additional charges may apply for multiple delivery attempts or returns.

🛡️ Insurance Coverage

Many of our shipments include embedded insurance coverage up to ₹10 Lakh, subject to terms communicated at the actual time of booking. Coverage details, exclusions, and claim procedures will be provided at the time of booking or upon request. Insurance is not a substitute for proper packaging and declaration of goods.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, mintcrate's total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to our services shall be limited to the lesser of: (a) the actual documented loss, or (b) the insurance coverage amount applicable to that shipment.

We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, business interruption, or data loss, regardless of the cause.

Disclaimer of Warranties:

Our services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. While we strive to maintain high reliability for high-value deliveries, we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. We make no warranties regarding the suitability of our services for any particular purpose beyond what is expressly stated in these Terms.

9. Payments & Fees

Service charges are communicated at the time of order confirmation. Payment terms may vary depending on whether you are a one-time customer or a registered B2B client using the Sender Portal.

You agree to pay all charges associated with your orders. Late payments may incur additional fees. We reserve the right to suspend services for accounts with overdue payments.

Cancellations & Refunds: Orders may be cancelled before pickup is initiated. Once a rider has been dispatched, cancellation charges may apply. Refund eligibility for prepaid orders is subject to the specific terms communicated at the time of booking. For B2B clients, cancellation and refund terms are governed by the applicable service agreement.
